Learn about pkg-config, PKG_CONFIG_PATH, CPPFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You sound overoptimistic - compiling gtk+ alone will take some time (I mean the learning curve), let alone Mozilla. I suggest first to fully compile from source gtk+ and Mozilla, _not_ cross-compile, and only then to go to cross-compilation. You questions are not gtk+ - specific, by the way.
